This compilation of teeny tiny puppies trying out their shaky little howls KILLED ME. I watched it 50 times and now I am dead. Send flowers to my parents, and then hit play to join me in my cuteness-induced early grave. [YouTube via Laughing Squid]…

Here is a puppy chewing on stairs, because who doesn't need to see a puppy chewing on the stairs? Nobody, that's who. The stairs must taste pretty good because that little guy just won't quit. My favorite part is when he takes a break and yawns because, well, chewing on things is pretty darn exhausting. […

The photos released of a gaggle of painfully adorable baby pandas in China this week has left me a little more obsessed than usual with all things baby and furry. In photo form, baby animals are pretty much the best thing in the world — all that cuteness with no caretaking required.

It has been a tough 24 hours. I would never be so glib as to suggest anything as silly and fluffy as a puppy GIF could ease the pain of those suffering in the aftermath of yesterday's attack in Boston, and our thoughts and prayers are with them. But I thought all of you could…

This just in: All animals need love, even the hard-shelled kind. On Friday, the Humane Society of the United States posted these amazing photos of a rescued tortoise who found a home in a litter of pups. Just look at those buddies! [Humane Society]…

The Super Bowl is this weekend, which is whatever -- what really matters is that the Puppy Bowl will also be on! The Puppy Bowl runs concurrent with ye olde Superbowl, and is a furry, adorable alternative full of frolicking puppies, fuzzy kittens and--for the first time--cheerleading hedgehogs. And the lucky ma…

There's one reason and one reason only that I actually get excited for the Super Bowl each year ... no, not the promise of taut man asses you can bounce a quarter off of -- the Puppy Bowl! Animal Planet holds their epic puppy playtime extravaganza every Super Bowl Sunday and it's always incredibly squee-worthy…

Do you go to Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada? No? Well, get your but there on December 4, 5 and 6th, because the school is creating a goddamned puppy room for stressed out students. The pups won't be permanently on campus; they're graciously volunteering their time and soft, floppy ears with volunteers from…

If you're like, oh, the whole Frisky staff, you woke up this morning consumed with anxiety — nay, dread — over the potential turnout of tonight's election. You know what you need? A good puppy video. Well, it's not good for the puppy. He can't get that damn doorstop. Poor thing. [Glamour]…

Why do they even bother with bunnies on Easter? Unless, English Angora rabbits were the official Easter bunnies, then I would understand. But they're not. Regular rabbits are, which aren't nearly as fluffy in the face. I'm not a "squee-er." In fact, I hate that word, but you can't deny puppies with bunny…

This is a video of 42 Saint Bernards -- and one child -- hanging out in the woods. The video comes from a breeder in British Columbia who captured her dogs out for a jaunt in the woods. It's kind of like the "Being John Malkovich" of dog videos, except with way, way way more…

So, Feb. 5 is the Super Bowl, which means the Puppy Bowl will also roll into town the same day for those of us who care way more about cute pups than pigskins. The annual festival of wagging tales and furry faces kicks off on the Animal Planet on Sunday Feb. 5 at 3 p.m.

These pups really put the "happy" in Hanukkah. The yarmulke-wearing, payot-growing, Star-of-David sporting doggies featured here know their latkes from their blintzes and so on. As we Frisky Jews (Ami and I) celebrate the festival of lights, we wish all of you -- and your pets -- a great holiday season.

Sometimes it feels as if the Internet has crawled into my brain, uncovered repressed thoughts, and given them their own domain name. In the case of "Ryan Gosling Vs. Puppy," a Tumblr blog which pits a picture of The Gos against a similar picture of a puppy, the web has unearthed my very ow…

Speaking of things that make me cry: PUPPIES! Specifically this 11-week-old pitbull pup named Harper who escaped death, well, three times by my count. Harper was born with debilitating “swimmer puppy disorder,” in which they cannot walk and survival is unlikely. First, she was abandoned in a trash bag where she would have died…

It may be small in stature, but this baby duck is completely terrorizing that innocent puppy! I know because his bark sounds exactly like Lucca's when I practice playing Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold" on my ukulele.

Simply Irresistible

As you slog your way through the myriad not-yet-April Fools' Day pranks that plague this nation, revel in this: no one has ever pranked someone better than Michael Jackson pranked Russell Crowe, and he did it for years. In an interview with The Guardian, Crowe revealed that despite having never met Jackson,…
